We have a COLOR SPLASH week at The Play Date Cafe, and this time 'round, the splash is AQUA.
I grabbed a beautiful paper from my new Teresa Collins' Christmas Home paper pad and some felt snowflakes from my Stampin' Up! Felt Flurries stash, and I was on my way!
I CASE'd a layout from my friend and fellow Play Date Cafe teammate, Andrea, for this card. She gave me some of her beautiful cards and I hang on to them, treasure them, and get inspired by them. Thanks, my friend!
